-ketchup bottles

-fabric dye (i used dylon)

-newspaper

-rubberbands

-400ml hot water

-white cotton t-shirt

Q and A's

Q: must i use 400 ml water?

A: It depends on the dye instructions but if you add more water the dye will be light, if less, will be dark. So 400ml would probably be the best.

Q: Where can i get the dye?

A:At any art shop or hardware shop.

Q:Must i use the bottles?

A: no, its up to you, but the bottles will not make a mess and colouring process will be easier.

Q:Must the t-shirt be cotton?

A: I'm not sure but cotton would be best :)

Q:How do you dry it? How long?

A: Put them in a plastic bag and let dry under sun for 2 days. Then, rinse with water and hang dry under sun again.

Q: How many days should i let it dry?

A: 2 days but you can rinse it once its dry or damp.

Q:Must i wash it with detergent afterwards?

A: After taking the rubber bands out, hang dry. After its dry, wash with detergent or soap.

Q:Will it fade?

A:After a long long long time.. yes, it will fade a little depending on the fabric of your shirt.

***Q: Do i have to flip it over and do the same on the back?

A: Yes,you have to flip it over and do the same.. but make sure to follow the order of the colours. Example: If the front quarter is red, when you flip it over make sure the back of the red part is painted red too.. i hope its not too confusing :/ if you still don't understand i'm willing to explain it again :)
